[SeidoN]

Voted Bouch as did last poll.

This will be a Bouch vs Matteau battle.

Add Kerfoot.

I think Blackwood should be in the discussion in terms of pure upside and prospect outlook, but hes not gonna win so ill just vote Bouch

 

[ForeverJerseyGirl]

Voted for Blackwood. Regardless of what people think of the pick, he's a top-ranked goalie prospect right now, so I think he deserves some recognition.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Bouch add the Wedge

 

[Emperoreddy]

Voted for Bouch. Add Hulk and Hrabanka

 

[Zippy316]

Matteau add Hrbarenka

 

[Csonked Out]

Matteau add Hrabarenka

 

[Emperoreddy]

I really am not sure where to put black wood but I do agree high. Most likely gets my vote next round.

Blackwood is a bit hard to place, since he's years away from when he would be projected to actually play in the NHL, but at the same time, he is a very highly regarded and talented goalie prospect. Here I was torn between voting for Stefan Matteau (who looked quite ready to contribute at the NHL level last season) and MacKenzie Blackwood, but I thought Blackwood deserved some love, so I cast my vote for him.

 

[Kurt Cobain]

I really am not sure where to put black wood but I do agree high. Most likely gets my vote next round.

Agreed. I'm voting Blackwood next, followed by Boucher.

As for this round I'm voting Stefan Matteau.

Add Hrabarenka.

 

[devilsblood]

Sticking with Steph. Just like what I've seen from him more then Bouch.

Too early for Blackwood imo. Has he shown more the Jacobs Matteau or Q, all guys taken higher then him in recent years.

 

[Cheddabombs]

I think Boosh has more upside than Matteau. But Matteau was really impressive in his short stint with the big club last year, and I'm holding out hope that he'll become more than a 3rd liner. So I'll vote Matteau, but it's real close.

 

[tr83]

FFS...Boosh already

Matteau is a less skilled Zubrus

 

[Sgt Brylin]

Voted Blandisi, I think people around here will be shocked when he makes the team next year.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Voted Blandisi, I think people around here will be shocked when he makes the team next year.

Need to see him play some pro games before I start putting him
Higher on my list.

I do agree he could surprise.

 

[TheDarkSideOfThePuck]

Boucher add Hrabarenka

 

[Devils Dominion]

Voted Blandisi, I think people around here will be shocked when he makes the team next year.

You sure he's not Mike Swift Part-2?

Blackwood easily for me here, people are really selling him short, he's a fantastic prospect.
